As a child, I once fell down a tree. I just fell a few branches, ended up upside down, caught on a branch by one of my rubber boots. My mother claims I never made a sound - just hanged there quietly. I do not remember this myself, but I like to believe that I enjoyed the view. Up in the trees everything looks a little "Pollockesque".
I remove the "jazz" of Pollock's paintings, and create sugestive mirrors wich is largely based on light-dark contrasts rather than chromatic structure. The round shape is a comment on my use of a lens based equipment - Kodak's very first camera availiable to the public; the “No. 1 Kodak”, provided round images. It's also a reference to the "tondos" - a Renaissance term for a circular work of art.
I´ve used hand made filters, and I´ve agitated the camera - forcing spontaneity into different forms. I´m interested in the tension between spontaneity and limitations..

I like to climb trees a lot.

My mother has told me that I as a two to three year old (almost) fell down from a huge ash. I was hooked up in one of the branches, and ended up hanging upside down in one of my rubber booths. I never made a sound - just hanged there quietly. I do not remember this myself, but I like to believe that I enjoyed the view.

I have to move nearly every 6 month from one studio to another - low income, means low costs - i have a cheap 50 euro sony digicam and made this pic while i was inspecting my new room - dark and shiny
has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.
